I'm not aware of any free ActiveX tools that will do this. Matter of fact, the ONLY ones I know of are from FMS ... and they're not free.<br />

It can't just be a simple summary, or a Chart? (that IS free)<br />
It has to be an &quot;Odometer&quot;?<br />
<br />
These &quot;dashboard&quot; controls typically have to be installed on every compter that they will be viewd on.<br />
<br />
If I need something like this, I'll usually make my own, something like this:<br />

It was using a chart subform embedeed but I think is better if i use a odometer.<br />
Can we use another way to measure trends?<br />
Yes I know dashboard typically have to be installed on each computer.<br />
Any help might be very useful.<br />
Thanks
</div>


<div>
o.k I will check.<br />
What else do you want me to suggest that I can use as odometer behavior on Access without incoroparate any components on my forms. I wan to keep as simple as possible.<br />
<br />
Thanks.

<div>
As Jeff said, if you stick with Access you can use Charts, Bar Graphs, etc ... but that's really about it. In many cases, you can build some pretty neat dashboards with just text, labels, boxes, and lines ...

Odometers &quot;Data benchamarks&quot;

Microsoft Access is a rapid application development (RAD) relational database tool. Access can be used for both desktop and web-based applications, and uses VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) as its coding language.
